The Unfortunate Women Whose Sole Ocou- pation is Gossip. AMERICAN WORKING WOMEN, “Too Many of We"—Travelling Pers fumery Shops—Energetic Miss Callehan—1he Girl of Muscle —~Women's Wonders. “Too Many of We,” Woman's World, Mamma, is there too many of we?* The little girl asked with a sigh. “Perhaps you wouldn't be tired, you see, Lt a few of your childs shouid die.” She was only thiree vears old—this one Who spoke in that stranze, sad way, As she saw her mother’s impatient frown At the children’s boisterous play. There were a half dozen whoround her stood, And the motuer was sick and poor, Worn ont with the care of the noisey brood, And light with the wolf at the door. For a smile or a kiss no time, no place; For the little one least of all; And the shadow that darkened the mother’s | face O'er the young life seemed to fall. More thoughtful than any she felt more care, @ And pondered in childish way How to lighten the burden she could not share, Growing heavier day by day. Only a week, and the little Clarie In her tiny white trundle- Lay with her blue eyes closed and the sunny hair Cut close from the golden head. ‘Don't cry,” she said—and the words were 0w, Feeling toars that she could not see— “You won't have to work and be tired so, When there ain’t so many of we.” But the dear little daughter who went away From the home that for once was stilled, Showed the mother’s heart from that dreary day, What a place she had always filled. ‘Women Who Work. Philadelphia Record: Thereare in the United States 2,847,157 women who earn th own living. Of this number 2,242,252 are laborers, (mainly agricul- tural) mill operatives, seamstresses, domestic servants and teachers—all of them, except the last, menial and poorly paid employments, and the last is poorly puid when the teachers are women., With the above statistics Ida M. n Etten opens an article in the current number of the North American . review. Continuing, she pointsout that we thus find a social condition which obliges nearly 3,000,000 women to depend on their own exertions for a_livliihood, and offers them a _field of labor so circum- scribed as to afford empioyment for not more than one-tenth of the number. Enormous overcrowding, tierce competi- tion, and a consequent undue pressure of wages necessarily follow. MERE HUMAN MACHINES, The number of mill operatives, which is given at 152,162, includes only those engaged in the textile manufactures; but the number engaged in othier manufac- tories would greatly swell these figures. For instance, about 20,000 women and girls are cigar-makers. More than 21,000 work 1n the boot and shoc factorics, where they do the meaner sort of work — binding, sewing on buttons, etc., and are very poorly paid, There is, morcover,no chance for advancement, as the work re- quires only 3 certaiu amount of manal exterity, which is readily acquired by a child, and thus the wages of the woman are kept ut a level with those of a child. Experience and trustworthiness count for naught. “*Nothing,” says the writer, i more effectual in producing abjectness of character, and deadening the moral and intellectual nature tham 2 mean, ser- vile condition, which hoid vut no hope of change or improvement,and 1n which the ‘compensation is insufficienl to afford the means of a comfortable living.'” THE OPPRESSION OF THE WEAK. Notwitnstanding these apparent draw- backs, the fact remansthat of the employes in many n enterprises are women. at they are 1 reality mere beasts of burden—part of the machinery—does not’deter them from secking such employment., Carroll D. Wright, United States Commissioner of Labor calls usttention to the fuct that in all departments where men only are employed the hours of lanor are but ten, but where the women and children pre- ponderate the hours are eleven or more, and asks why it 18 that the weakest, the most helpless and dependent, are loaded with more hours, while the strongest and those better able to bear it have fewer hours to work? This 18a question that has botheres many a head, and has been vainly asked over and over again. Ways and means looking to a betterment of the condition of the workingwomen have been discussed; a few of them have assumed tangible shape and have been followed b( satisfactory results. These are mainly clubs, which look to the amehoration of the social condition of mill operatives, seamstresses and shop-girls, and to bu- reaus of employment and information, These are excellent in their way, but have no effect in relieving the over- crowded avenues of labor open to women or in protecting them from the demands for excessive hours s0 often imposed. METHODS FOR A CURE. As n remedy for this sysiem of op- pression the writer in the Review, to whom we have referred,suggests that the workingwomen organize trades unions to determine the hours and wages on the same plan that the trades unions for men are now carried on., This might, it is true, better their condition in a measure, but the system is beset with difliculties that [ fear would be more wearing and tearing to the average woman than the toiling and scerimping that she now en- . The kind of organization that would do away with child labor in the factories would be more to the point. It would make room for more women and would undoubtedly raise their wages to the level of woman's work. WHERE ORGANIZATION MAY DO GOOD. But sad as is the condition of female operatives in the mills that of the women who tight the . wolf from the door with the point of a needle is infinitely worse. For them there are no hours,no Sundays, absolutely no time for recreation. 1 do not refer to the skilled dressmakers, or the accomplished seamstresses who fash- ion dainty wear for fashion's favorites, but to the sewing woman who makes a heavy pair of workmau’s trousers for 7 cents, or a shirt for 6 or 8 cents. It is easy to see that these poor creatures can hardly find time to eatv or sleep, inuch less for recreation. It is only by unceas- ing labor, twelye or fifteen hours a day, and seven days in the week, thatthey are able to ward " off starvation and keep the life in their wretched bodies at all. “And the condition of the cloakmakers and those who make women’s underclothing is not much better, Comparatively few women nowadays have their undorwear made at home. ~ After buyinf the ma- terials scarcely nnythinfi‘ 8 left to pay for the making; ey find it much cheaper and quite satisfactory to buy these garments ready-made, But it is clear that they are cheapened by the heart's blood of the sewing women who make them, and not by pecuniaryloss to the merchant who sells them. These are hard facts, but they are apparent. Cloak- makers are slightly better off, for their work calls for experience, taste and #kill; but they are wretchedly paid, for all that. For this class of workingwomen thorough orgauization might do much. A BETTER REMEDY STILL, But there is another way out of the dii- ficulty—a way that requires no system of organization or concerted action. Every workingwoman has the matter in her own hands. There is a constant and nereasing demand for domestic ants. The cry of their scarcity and incompetency is heard on every hand. It 18 folly 1o say that this branch of employ- ment is overcrowded, althou, nearly 1,000,000 women in the United States are household*workers., We need _more and we noed better servants. The newly landed immigrant, who has probabl worked in fields all her lite. does not fill the bill. We want intelligent women in our houses, who.if they do not know how already, are capable of learning how to perform houshold work acceptably, and at no great outlay of time and ex perience, POSITIONS OF LEISURE AND PROFIT, The talk about domest rvice cur- tailing the privileges of the worker is all sheer nonsense. In all well regulated households the maid has her weekly af- ternoon and evening out and her aitern- ate Sunday. In almost every house these regular outings are supplemented | others, so that her life is far from being the life of a prisoner, and infinitely more free than that of the sewing women,who must make the most of every available moment or starve. Mistresses are gen- erally kind and considerate if maids be cheerfal and willing. Moreover, house- hold work is healthful; it aflords a diver- sity that is of itself xation of mind and body; and, fi it is better paid than any other branch of labor open to uneducated workingwomen. Indeed, it is doubtfnl if many of the female teach- ers can saye as much money as the do- mestic workerin the course of the £ QUESTIONS OF RESPECTABILITY CONSID- ED. The ground covering the false notions of the loss of dignity and social position by entering domestic service has been gone over times without number, and the last word seems to have been said. Any woman of innate refinement and proper self-respect should not need to be assured that these qualities may be main- tained unde; nd all conditions, but if she have in addition her fair share of common sense she will know that the cleanly, well ordered kitchen where she reigns as domestic 1s more favorable to their perpetuation than the squalid tene- ments she is able to provide for herself as seamstress. When the masses of mill operatives, mstresses, ete., shall have been educa up to an app! the adyanta; tpdnmvshc servie condition will be bettered. The problem of women’s wages will solveitself, and the servant girl question will no longer vex. And then there need be no fear that any field of employment will be overcrowded. Thero Js o overplus of women or men; there is work for every pair of willing hands, and bread for every hungry mouth. But the energy of the hands should be expended where it is needed. A little judgment in this di- rection will help women more than all the labor organizations that can be de- vised. The remedy for each individual the case rests with individual, Women Whose Ounly Interest in Ex- istence 18 Gossip. However prominently gossip enters into the life of the average boarding- house elsewhere, says Philadelphia P , In this city it is the characteristic that makes everthing else subordinate. The people live on 1t, cul- tivate it as an art, and make it the chief occupation of their daily liv The in- terest of any friendly intercourse that exists consists chiefiy in finding out things about one another or about some- body else in the house. There is hardly a boarding house in Philadelphia where the private and do- mestic affairs of every one in it are not as well known to every one else in it o to themselves. What a woman is mal ing or doing, what she bought yesterday or what she is going to buy to-day, who she visits, who visits her, how much her husband makes, where he is if absent from a meal, how much her last dress cost her, or just what is the matter with her if she remains in her room,are quite as well known to every woma the houso as to herself. There is in almost ¢ very boarding house one or two women,usually unmarried and no longer purticularly juvenile, who make this their usiness in lite. To cat and know what is going on is all they care for. They seldom go out, have no interests or occu- pation, and gradually every feminine trait ~ becomes subordinated until curiosity becomes a passion. Every time the bells rings they know it, as they do the contents of every Iifudle that ar- rives. They see the letters at the plates before the owner see them themselves, and cleverly draw out of the recipients who they are from if it takes six months todo it. They invito and cultivate the confidence of every newcomer solely to minister to their absorbing passion, Quite often the woman who keeps the boarding house is afflicted with this frenzy herself, and the case is well authenticated of the kee: of a fashionable boarding house 1n this city who opened and read, by steaming them, the letters of most of the ladies in the house for six months be- fore she was discovered. Th nume ber of boarding houses where every let- ter and every package received into the house is taken to the mistress before then reach their rooms. In all such espionage as this of course servants have a share, and, as a rule, not only lend themselves easily to it, but 1n time be- came adepts themselves. Traveling Perfumery Shops. A decided innovation is to have, be- tween the dress st and the lining, sachet powder: in fact, the whole waist of the dress servesas one large sachet. Wahile this may make the dress a little heavier, and consequently add to its warmth, it is just what is needed for win- ter weather, " Evening dresses are also treated in this way.
